    Hey,

    my hoster has Suhosin installed on all its servers, it limits my maxpost size etc. I'm trying to get rid of it, but edits in the php config seem to be overwritten.

    Any ideas how can I disable it?

    You would need to talk to your host about allowing per user configurations, or, opening up the limit. The other alternative would be to move hosts that can accommodate your needs.

    Yeah, I'm going to call them on monday (monday to friday support, wtf). Thought about moving as well, but I just rented it for a year a month ago and paid lots of money for it (it a dedicated server).

    I was wondering if there is any line I could add to php.ini that would disable that damn thing.

    I'm assuming that your host has disabled the SuHosin perdir setting which would allow you to change them per .htaccess?

    I called them and they refused to turn it off / allow me to do it. Guess I'll have to move to another host.

    And this is a dedicated server, where you have complete control, and your sites are the only ones on it? You should be calling the shots on what goes on with it, why are they refusing to allow you to change it? Is it a managed server? I would like to hear the reasoning behind why they are refusing to change it.
